Super PAC launches anti-Clinton site

StopHillary2016.org, a project of the super PAC America Rising, launched Thursday, as CNN reported. The anti-Clinton fundraising effort is accompanied by email solicitations, and is run by a PAC featuring some high-profile Republican strategists, including Matt Rhoades, the PAC’s executive director, who formerly served as Mitt Romney’s campaign manager.

“America Rising was formed to prevent Americans from ever having to see another Clinton in the White House,” reads a statement on the “Stop Hillary” site. “We’ve seen what a President Hillary Clinton would be like from her time as Secretary of State. We can’t afford another Clinton administration after eight years of President Obama.”

The move comes during a week in which Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) offered a high-profile endorsement of both former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the super PAC, Ready for Hillary, that’s encouraging her to run in 2016.
